Wedding Party
Kaydee
Maid of Honor
Since 2012, Kaydee has been such an important part of our lives. She met Bianca at church, and what started with silly shoutout videos grew into a lifelong friendship. Her laughter is contagious, her advice is always spot-on, and she somehow makes even the simplest moments unforgettable. She has been a constant source of kindness, loyalty, and honest love — never afraid to say what needs to be said. And if you know them… CONNECT. 🤍 We truly couldn’t imagine this day without her standing beside us.
Shahlaa
Bridesmaid
Shahlaa came into Bianca’s life through Kaydee after high school, after dealing with Bianca’s stubbornness they quickly became partners in crime. She’s always there when you need her, a true ride-or-die friend who makes every moment better. Whether we’re laughing until our cheeks hurt or just being goofy together, life is never boring with her around. And just so you know… CONNECT. 🤍 We’re so lucky to have her standing with us on our big day.
Brianna
Bridesmaid
Brianna isn’t just Bianca’s sister — she’s truly one of a kind. Headstrong, smart, stubborn (sometimes a little bit of a pain 😅), and incredibly caring, she’s always been there for Bianca through the highs, the lows, and all the messy in-betweens. Whether it’s giving honest advice or sharing laughs that go on forever, Brianna has a way of making every moment brighter. Also… don’t let her fool you — underneath all that confidence, she’s secretly a weenie. 🤍 We both can’t imagine this day without her by our side.
Brittney
Bridesmaid
Brittney is Bianca’s sister and pure joy — silly, fun, and always matching our energy. She’s never afraid to be herself, and her laid-back, chill vibe makes every moment more enjoyable. Whether we’re laughing at nothing or just hanging out, she always keeps us smiling. Her humor is infectious, and life is brighter with Brittney around. Fair warning… she’s a weenie at heart. 😭🤍 We’re so happy to have her standing with us on our big day.
Blossom
Bridesmaid
Blossom is Bianca’s youngest sister and a force of nature — crazy, stubborn, and outspoken. She’s tested Bianca’s patience more times than she can count, but loving her has always come easy. Her energy and boldness light up every room, and she always keeps us laughing no matter what. Behind all that fire, she has a heart full of love and loyalty that makes her truly unforgettable. And yes… she’s a weenie. 🤍 We both feel blessed to have her for our special day.
Joey “Swag” Santiago
Best Man
Not just an older brother, but Matthew’s first best friend. One of the most intellectual, talented, hilarious person in his life. He was there for his brothers and picked them up after school when mom worked late, and continued to be there for his brothers and picked Matthew up out of a dark place and remind him of the strength and love we have inside ourselves to continue moving forward even when life knocks us down. We’re so grateful to have Joey be a part of this special day in our lives, perfectly in tune with the fundamental frequency of our celebration.
Chris
Groomsman
Matthew’s youngest brother and a true jack of all trades. Stained glass artist, sneaker mechanic building supervisor, and the maker of a killer sweet potato pie. Though he is the youngest brother (and often confused as the oldest due to his height) he has taught and shown his older brothers a strong hustle mentality and the ability to focus purely on the goal regardless of how tough the journey gets. Don’t let his reserved demeanor deceive you, he’s the goofiest one out of all his brothers 😂 It means the world to have you by our side on our wedding day.
Joshua “Speedy” Almonte
Groomsman
The baseball legend himself. Best friend and brother of Matt since middle/high-school. Speedy is the kind of friend that would get you so drunk but will make it his soul purpose to get you home safely, going toe to toe with bouncers 3 times our size 😂 he’s known to keep the party going and check on your mental health. From traveling back and forth to Albany and dancing on washing machines, to chillin in the lower east side with a beer and good burger, speedy has always been a good friend and brother to Matt giving him guidance and supporting his music and career goals. We are grateful to have him come all the way to PR to celebrate and be apart of this memory.
Devin
Groomsman
The last man in the kitchen himself, “Dolce Dev “Anglada, best friend and brother of Matthew since kindergarten. From running amuck in High school, pregaming with Brandy in college while they freestyled over instrumentals, recording tracks in the dorm and performing songs on the same stage, to settling down with our partners and starting a family. Devin is the type of friend that would roast you so bad you contemplate life but will check up on you and be there when life gets rough. A strong friendship that developed into brotherhood. We are truly grateful to have you with us and apart of this beautiful ceremony.
CW
Groomsman
To call him Matthew’s younger cousin is an understatement. Since the day he was born, he became our little brother. Matt used to carry him around until CW hit a growth spurt and grew tall enough to sub in for Jalen Brunson (Let’s Go Knicks). CW wears his heart on his sleeve with a soul so kind, you would think he was running for Mayor. Watching him grow up to be the person he is today makes us both emotional and proud to have him in our lives. But dont take his kindness for weakness, he’s a warrior on the mound and will roast the hell out of you 😭. We are so blessed to have him apart of this beautiful day.
